On Jan. 8, Schmiege pleaded no contest to charges of assault to do great bodily harm, felony firearms and carrying a weapon with unlawful intent. In exchange, charges of assault with a dangerous weapon, assault with intent to murder and two additional counts of felony firearms were dismissed, court records show.

Schmiege also pleaded guilty to an unrelated count of possession of marijuana with intent to deliver, court records show.

The charges stem from a July 1 incident, when Schmiege allegedly shot Dan S. Haney, 24, four times in the torso with a .22-caliber pistol in front of Haney’s home at 700 10th.

Haney previously testified Schmiege’s brother and another man were in front of his house, calling for him to come outside. When Haney exited his home, an argument ensued, Haney said.

The dispute turned physical when Haney punched one of the two men, at which point Schmiege allegedly appeared from behind the house and opened fire, Haney said.

Haney has also testified his association with Schmiege’s brother was linked to drugs.

Haney’s assailants fled the scene before Bay City Police arrived. Police arrested Schmiege a short while later, court records show.
